Yeah, you're probably right. So don't make friends. On the other hand, if we're going to win, we're gonna need more allies than just Pyxis. Two 'gainst twelve ain't great odds. Maybe we don't wanna make friends, but we sure as hell don't want enemies, and we don't wanna isolate ourselves. Makes us easier to target if these games get as bad as they say. So make connections, smile big, and let'm think they're getting close to you when they're not, and we'll stand a better chance at not getting the shit kicked out of us. Make sense?
